Is Sebille an interesting Origin for a Main Character?

[Syrax314]

Might choose Sebille as my main character. Never included her in my party beyond the first 1-2 hours of Fort Joy, so I don't know very much about how her character evolves.

Thinking of doing a play through where:

Her own Personality:
- Generally good hearted
- Humorous but a little sarcastic
- Confrontational

Interactions with different Races:
- Very loyal with other elves
- Friendly with dwarves and humans
- Completely distrusting of Lizards, to the point that she may easily attack if provoked
> She won't necessarily kill every lizard she sees, but she has less patience with them
- Always kind to kids

Interactions with Personalities:
- Extremely aggressive towards slavers or anyone who infringes on Freedom (regardless of race)


My thoughts are to play her more like a bounty hunter than a straight up assassin. More about doing what she must to hunt people for justice/vengence rather than comfortably killing anyone she sees because she belittles the value of other people's lives.


For those who have played with Sebille already, do you think that the above role play would match her personality? Or is she always going to be locked in as a blood thirsty, murderous character no matter what?

Thanks for your help!

I have her as my main, and I like her. She is of course a rouge.

Bounty hunter type certainly fits Ifan more than it does Sebille. That's not to say you can't play her like that but keep in mind that she is, by default roleplay, an assassin-type. Now.. whether you want that to be a mage-assassin or a healer that just sort of is murderous, whatever.

But for the most part, she's not a strict bounty hunter. She has a strong sense of justice and wants her vengeance and whatnot.

shes pragmatic... shes not above killing someone if it suits her so I wouldnt say shes very good at all lol maybe 20/80

Sabille is, at most, lawful neutral, but closer to chaotic neutral. She abosultly will shank a dude to reach her goal, but seems to also be fine with finding other ways. Usually.

Thanks Lilly. That's actually pretty helpful. Maybe I'll save my rogue playthrough for when I want a little more blood lust.

Thanks RB! It's funny how often I try to perceive characters in these games through the D&D alignment system. :)

To be fair, it's useable in every situation that involves people or characters.

My current (and first) playthrough is with Sebille and she isn't blood thirsty if you are controlling her character (as against having her as a companion). Her story line is a rather sad one and things can get convoluted later one.

But again, so is every other origin characters you play interesting if you control them as a main character.

She has a decent backstory, but nothing special. The companions feel more alive if you have them as companions, not main characters.
